It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views.

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
"America can trade with whoever they want"
IT LITERALLY STOPS COUNTRIES THAT TRADED WITH CUBA FROM TRADING WITH THE USA. IF YOU DOCK A SHIP IN CUBA, THAT SHIP CAN'T BE DOCKED IN THE USA FOR ANOTHER 13 (?) MONTHS, SINCE AMERICA IS THE ECONOMIC CENTER OF GRAVITY OF THE ENTIRE WESTERN HEMISPHERE, THIS EFFECTIVELY BLOCKS CUBA FROM GETTING THINGS IT NEEDS LIKE MEDICAL EQUIPMENTS, WHILE BASICALLY THREATENING TO SABOTAGE THE ECONOMY OF ANYONE WHO TRADES WITH CUBA!!! IT'S NOT JUST AMERICA "NOT WANTING TO TRADE WITH CUBA" AS A "PROTEST" TO CUBA'S "AUTHORITARIANISM". THE EMBARGO HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 60 YEARS AND WAS BASICALLY AMERICA TAKING REVENGE ON CUBA FOR NATIONALIZING ITS SUGAR INDUSTRIES AND REFUSING TO BE A CASINO FOR THE AMERICAN MAFIA. WHERE ARE THESE "LEGALIST" ARGUMENTS WHEN IT COMES TO THE AMERICAN TORTURE DUNGEONS IN GUANTANAMO BAY, WHICH IS CUBAN SOVEREIGN TERRITORY AND WHICH CUBA HAS REJECTED OUTRIGHT FOR DECADES????
THE UN HAS VOTED TO END THE EMBARGO FOR 30 YEARS STRAIGHT BUT AMERICA DOESN'T CARE:
THE ONLY COUNTRY THAT SIDES WITH AMERIKKKA ON THIS IS ISNTRAEL AND (KINDA SORTA) UKKKRAINE
Thanks comrade for your measured and appropriate response.
I can’t understand Ukraine’s position on this. This was their position prior to the invasion too. It must be America simping. Most other European countries, including those that were invaded by Russia and have beef with Russia, support Cuba despite its automatic siding with Russia on every issue.
Ukraine got couped in 2004 first. And that's on top of the already nationalist government from 1991. Shit politics there absolutely did not start with the current war
2014*
Nope. Here's a link. . 2014 was a second coup. I know my history.
Correct comrade, sorry for that.
lol, even the biggest US simps in Europe like Germany, Finland and TERF Island voted to end the embargo though.
